He seems to have a full vampire collar now instead of just the little shoulder cape? Could be cool.

Jam and Dizzy are the two last big fan favorites left, so they're probably safe bets for season 4, with maybe a new character and an oddball pick to round it out

Been messing around with Aba in training mode (No matches here yet, it's 7 am lol).

NM keygrab in the corner gives an automatic MM safejump.

Super wall break gives an automatic IAD safe jump in MM.

Also, as in the clip above, after MM throw in the corner you can OTG c.S into a safe jump.

NM jump is significantly floatier than MM jump so safe jump timings are different.

Her NM parry seems to have about 6 or 7f of startup.

Edit: Keygrab is at least +2 ob because after that she can ch Sol's 5K with her 4f 2P.

Command Dash can no longer go under Sol's 2S :(.

Edit 2: Corrected an error. Oops.

My current super dumb skill issue:
Brain: ok I need to do a forward jump to start my corner combo and get the kill
Fingers: say no more fam does a neutral jump which my opponent punishes and then I die

That type of thing is my only execution fumble lately. I wonder if switching from dpad to an all button controller would fix that...

Idk if you’re joking but rewiring your brain to leverless can take a pretty long time. I got one months ago and still have to make a ritual of mentally repeating “down is up, thumb is up,” among many other things. Some things are easier but I am honestly still worse than I was in most respects.

I got the cheap haute42 keyboard like leverless with the wasd layout on the left. Aside from being hilariously small and awkward to play with on your lap, it wasn't tricky to get used to thanks to muscle memory from playing on m+KB for a lot of games. Also playing guitar for a shitload of time has made my left hand coordination pretty insane so doing half circles wasn't that much of a learning curve. Haven't played against another person with it, but it feels perfectly fine in training mode for me so I'll try to get some games in at the local this weekend.

But with shipping and taxes it came out to $25 and is about the size of a modern day smartphone. Build quality is decent but I have no idea how to transport it other than in the box it came in.

Roll your thumb from forward towards up rather than from up towards forward. Forward registers as an action you can cancel into 9 jump but you can't steer an 8 jump forward if that's the first command you send.

Congratulations on not getting fit in 2011!
The only way I've been able to make diagonal jumps work consistently on a pad is using 8-direction controllers that have diags mapped to their own button.

I hate to keep plugging the OG slim Saturn pad, but it, and others like it, really has been the last pad I've ever had to buy (at least for PC).

Why do leverless controllers default to putting jump on your thumb rather than your pinky? Doesn't putting it on the thumb force you do a claw hand constantly?

Because you hit the spacebar with your thumb I'd guess.

Saw Maximilian talking about this but it's so drat true for fighting games. It's like as soon as a new game is out in the series, the prior one automatically starts becoming considered good while the new one is always complained about.

It isn't just fighting games. Pretty much any long running thing has it happen. Like, poo poo, I've seen more positive about Final Fantasy 16 since Rebirth came out than I have in the entire leadup.

You can use either thumb for up. That’s why the og hitbox and a lot of them use a bigger button for it.

Left, down, and right are grouped together cause it’s really fast to get the fireball motion out.

You may find the wasd layout better if hitting up with your thumbs isn’t intuitive.

I'm playing SF6 on keyboard with jump on left shift and parry on spacebar, which seems like the obvious setup to me. Mostly I'm just wondering if there's some reason using your pinky for jump is bad.

The discussion is actually quite mind boggling to read through lol. For an old competitive game I'm surprised there's so much agreement on avoiding players of certain characters. Like straight up disconnecting before the match starts.
